Just as the old patriarch forced me to my death, I achieved the unity of Dao and fruition.

On the Canglan River, the moonlight was completely obscured by surging dark clouds.

Gu Changjin, dressed in black, stood in mid-air, riding the wind, looking like an immortal.

In this life, he was only twenty years old, with a slender figure and a youthful face. The Demon-Suppressing Blade in his hand was a standard longsword that could be seen everywhere in the Demon-Suppressing Division of Yunzhou.

If it weren't for the fact that the hundreds of miles of river behind him had been cleaved in two by a single strike, he wouldn't look like a True Martial Immortal capable of fighting the River God of Canglan head-on.

In front of him, the river burst open with a roar.

A jet-black dragon, hundreds of feet long, soared into the sky from the bottom of the water.

It has a single horn on its head, four claws that tread on water, and a ghostly blue aura that constantly seeps out from between its scales.

It was the Canglan Water Lord who had occupied the Canglan River for countless years.

Previously, all the demon generals, water demons, and even the dragon sons and grandsons that it had bred in the river had been wiped out by Gu Changjin.

Now, the entire Canglan River is left with only itself.

"Gu Changjin!"

The Azure Water Lord's eyes were bloodshot.

"You've gone too far!"

Gu Changjin chuckled upon hearing this.

"You man-eating monster."

"You're telling me this is going too far?"

"You even consider yourself a human being?"

Canglan Shuijun was speechless for a moment.

The next moment, he was completely enraged.

"Then let's die together!"

Its enormous demonic body suddenly plunged into the river.

boom!

The entire Canglan River seemed to be lifted up from its riverbed by an invisible giant hand.

The waterways for thousands of miles trembled simultaneously, and countless tributaries overflowed.

The already extremely wide river suddenly expanded to both banks.

One zhang, ten zhang, tens of zhang! Hundreds of zhang!

In a short while, a water wall hundreds of feet high slowly rose up along the thousand-mile-long river.

This was no ordinary flood; every drop of the river was mixed with the demonic power of the Azure Water Lord.

If it were to truly suppress the flood, the ordinary towns along the river wouldn't be able to hold out for even a moment.

"Weren't you going to save someone?"

The Water Lord of Canglan laughed heartily amidst the giant waves.

"Then let's save them!"

"I will not survive."

"Not a single human being will survive along these thousand-mile stretch of river!"

The words fell.

The hundred-foot-high wall of water crashed down on both banks.

Gu Changjin's eyes finally turned cold.

"court death."

The dark red Zhenwu Seal on his chest suddenly lit up.

Boom! Boom!!

The originally calm energy of heaven and earth seemed to be ignited in an instant.

Within a radius of hundreds of miles, the power of heaven and earth, including mountains, winds, clouds, and even the entire Canglan River, converged on Gu Changjin.

The True Martial Realm allows one to imprint their own mark on heaven and earth, borrowing the power of heaven and earth for their own use.

Although Gu Changjin has only recently entered this realm, his understanding of the rules of heaven and earth is far beyond what ordinary True Martial beings in this world can compare to.

There's no need for a illusory realm; the blood and qi of this body at the True Martial Realm level, combined with his own control over power, are already sufficient.

Gu Changjin took a step forward.

The Demon-Suppressing Blade makes a diagonal slash.

boom!

Dark red energy permeated the sky.

The power of heaven and earth converged with the blade, transforming into a blood-red river of blades stretching for tens of miles.

The Azure Water Lord suddenly opened its mouth.

Millions of river waters condensed into a single, deep blue droplet.

The water droplets were no bigger than a fist.

The moment it appeared, the surrounding space was compressed and slightly distorted.

"The Pearl of the Ocean!"

"town!"

The pale blue water droplets crashed into the flash of the blade.

The two forces at the pinnacle of True Martial Realm collided head-on.

Boom!

The river surface suddenly sank.

The river water within a radius of dozens of miles was drained in an instant.

The blade light shattered into pieces under this attack.

A look of joy had just appeared in Canglan Shuijun's eyes.

Gu Changjin had already reached the top of its head.

The Demon-Suppressing Blade is drawn from top to bottom.

He slashed at the dragon's single horn.

Click!

Unicorn fracture.

The Azure Water Lord let out a mournful scream.

Just as the enormous dragon was about to dive back into the water, Gu Changjin placed his left hand on its head.

The crimson True Martial Seal illuminates the sky.

The power of heaven and earth pressed down like an invisible mountain.

boom!

The hundreds-of-foot-long dragon's body was forcibly pressed back to the riverbed from mid-air.

"Don't move."

"This cut will be quick."

Gu Changjin raised his right hand.

The Azure Water Lord was finally afraid.

"Wait! I can leave Yunzhou!"

"I will never again..."

puff!

The blade flashed past the dragon's head.

A huge dragon head rolled into the river.

Blood instantly stained a large area of ​​the river red.

True Martial Extreme Realm Demon.

The River God of Canglan.

dead!

But the matter was not over yet. After losing the control of the Azure Water Lord, the thousand-mile torrent that had already been pushed forward did not stop at all.

Instead, due to the collapse of demonic power, it completely lost control.

In a small town along the river, tens of thousands of people had already rushed onto the city walls, their torches forming a continuous line.

No one ran away, because there was nowhere to run.

In the distance, the hundred-foot-high wall of water looked like a mountain collapsing towards them in the darkness.

The elderly man held the child, while the woman held her husband's hand tightly.

Many martial artists have already taken their positions at the very front of the city wall.

But everyone knows that.

It's no use. When this torrent comes down, everyone will die.

"They're here..."

Someone murmured something.

The water wall has already crossed the riverbank.

The next second, Gu Changjin's voice resounded throughout the heavens and earth once again.

"Gu Changjin, the Demon-Suppressing Guard of Yunzhou!"

"Tonight, I will slay the River God of Canglan!!"

The sound rolled across the riverbanks for miles.

Countless people looked up at the same time.

In the dark sky, the young figure stood on the air.

Blood from the dragon was still dripping from the Demon-Suppressing Blade.

Gu Changjin raised his left hand, and the True Martial Seal was fully manifested.

"Gentlemen."

"The demons are dead."

"This water, of course, won't drown you."

Boom! Boom!

The power of heaven and earth was forcibly drawn once again.

At this moment, even Zhenwu Zhenren, who was far away in Yunzhou Prefecture, could clearly sense that the energy of heaven and earth was frantically converging towards the Canglan River.

One hundred li, three hundred li, five hundred li, eventually covering the entire thousand-li riverbed!

The expressions of the several True Martial experts who were on their way changed simultaneously.

"Is he insane? He thinks he can single-handedly suppress a massive flood?!"

"By squandering the power of heaven and earth like this, his True Martial Seal will be damaged!"

Borrowing the power of heaven and earth does not mean there is no price to pay.

Such a large-scale forced intervention in the water veins not only consumes one's vital energy and blood, but also one's own True Martial Foundation etched between heaven and earth.

In more serious cases, it can even damage lifespan and future martial arts skills.

But Gu Changjin didn't care at all; all he wanted was for everyone to see it.

"Go back...!"

Rumble! Rumble!

The raging torrent that had already overflowed the riverbank suddenly stopped.

A colossal wave, hundreds of feet high, hangs in front of countless cities and villages.

The nearest village is less than a hundred feet away.

All the people stared blankly upwards.

Then, an even more shocking scene unfolded.

The overwhelming river water began to recede.

It was as if a pair of invisible giant hands had appeared between heaven and earth.

The entire out-of-control Canglan River was pushed back into its original course.

The torrent, stretching for thousands of miles, flows back into the river inch by inch, until the last wave of water overflows the riverbank once more.

Gu Changjin's voice once again resounded throughout Yunzhou.

"After tonight, Yunzhou will be forever free from the chaos of demons!!"

"This crumbling human race... I will save it!!"

Several figures have already quietly appeared in the sky above the Canglan River.

At the very front was the True Man who guarded Yunzhou.

He did not look at the dead Canglan Water Lord.

He just stared intently at the young figure in the night sky.

At twenty years old, he reached the pinnacle of True Martial Arts.

They were even willing to damage their own foundations and forcibly suppress the floodwaters for thousands of miles, just to save a group of ordinary people.

An absurd idea suddenly popped into his mind.

Could it be... that this is a being who was born on its own to save the world before the decline of the human race?

But! The Imperial Advisor had already...

Master Yunzhou's gaze gradually darkened.

However, the other Zhenwu beside him had a completely different reaction.

An old man with white hair stared at Gu Changjin for a long time without saying a word, and finally uttered only one sentence.

"Such a young age! Such profound cultivation!"

"Such a magnanimous heart."

"Our human race... has hope for revival!!"
